CDR OxiTester - the analysis system of olive oil used at the olive oil mill without specialised personnel or a chemical laboratory

Determination of sugars in olives

Glucose and fructose can give an important indication for the olive maturation.

By determining the amount of total fermentable sugar, sum of glucose and fructose, it is possible to assess the correct period for harvesting.

Method

Test Principle

The glucose and fructose present in the sample are determined enzymatically and therefore are not influenced by the presence of the remaining reducing sugars. The Redox reaction is read at 366 nm (end-point) and the value is directly proportional to the concentration of glucose and fructose in the sample.

...

Calibration curve

The calibration curve, obtained using reference methods, confirms the excellent linearity of the system over the whole testing range.
